Jeremiah 23:9 in Context — Jeremiah 23

7 Portanto eis que vêm dias,diz o SENHOR, que não mais dirão: Vive o SENHOR, que fez subir os filhos de Israel da terra do Egito;

8 Mas sim: Vive o SENHOR, que fez subir e trouxe a geração da casa de Israel da terra do norte, e de todas as terras para onde eu os afugentei; e habitarão em sua terra.

9 Quanto aos profetas: meu coração está quebrantado em meu interior, todos os meus ossos tremem; estou como um homem bêbado, como um homem dominado pelo vinho, por causa do SENHOR, e por causa de suas santas palavras.

10 Pois a terra está cheia de adúlteros: e por causa da maldição a terra lamenta; as cabanas do deserto se secaram; pois o percurso deles tem sido mau, e a força deles não é correta.

11 Pois tanto o profeta como o sacerdote são corruptos; até em minha casa achei sua maldade,diz o SENHOR.
